Thanks PT,
Always looking for something to do with the meat after the season.
Don't want to buy a dehydrator yet, but wanted to make some jerky.
Like with most things, I wont say anything if good and will take all the credit, but if it sucks, well . . .
you'll be hearing from me.
I have only made this recipe in a dehydrator ..... the key to great jerky is temperature control .... to hot, and you cook it .. not hot enough, it takes forever. If you have a smoker, lighten up on the liquid smoke a little .....
BTW .... I bought my dehydrator at a garage sale for around $10 ....
one more thing .... most ovens do not go below 170 degrees, making it tough to make jerky in ....
